At RadioLabs, we specialize in radios. One of our favorite portable
receivers is the Sangean ATS-909. However, it is really hard for our radio
experts to
keep their hands out of radios because this is what we do best. We developed
the new Sangean Super 909 to fill the demand for a mid-priced portable with
incredible features and performance which cannot be beat.

Xtreme Sensitivity! - RadioLabs provides the most extensive modifications on
the market for this receiver. We first start with RadioLabs exclusive
front-end
sensitivity increase. This is very important and will enable you to pick up
very distant stations. The next step is changing the IF filters for better
curve characteristics. If you have better sensitivity, you also need better
filters! Our filters are exclusive and are tailored for the best possible
audio
on MW and SW. We add a brand new speaker, which has excellent audio response
and will make your receiver perform like never before possible. We modify
the audio filter curves, install new LEDs which give a very custom look and
professional quality display. Next, we add the anti-mute modification and
remove
the detent from the tuning knob. If you have never used a Sangean ATS-909
and you are interested, we urge you to use a standard ATS-909 first to fully
enjoy the added features of our custom modified receiver.
If you are not familiar with the ATS-909 or it's features, or you are new to
shortwave, please read detailed specifications
 here.
